By my estimates, of 227 million eligible voters in U.S.:
40.3% didn't vote
28.8% voted Clinton
27.7% voted Trump
3.2% voted someone else
4 out of 10 eligible voters stayed home
As the analytics of this election trickle out.
Heard an interesting report on Pew Research numbers yesterday that I'd love to start discussion - stupid job messing with my research time :)
Funny how the polls nailed it on overall vote.
One conversation I heard pointed out that grizzled pro's saw HRC was vulnerable in that she never crossed 50%. Don't think it was a 538 led conversation either.
There are 3,141 counties in the U.S.; Trump won 3,084 of them.
Not only are corporations people but now land votes ?
I get your point but ...
More interesting numbers gleaned from last months election:
.................................................. ..............................
Our observation: The less-than-500 counties that Hillary Clinton carried nationwide encompassed a massive 64 percent of America’s economic activity as measured by total output in 2015. By contrast, the more-than-2,600 counties that Donald Trump won generated just 36 percent of the country’s output—just a little more than one-third of the nation’s economic activity.

These numbers and this argument blows out of the water notions of makers and takers

And the future of innovation.
Rural America's unwillingness to invest in metropolitan infrastructure and how it holds us all back.
I am asking, isn't this exactly how our Rust Belt cities fell to ruin -
A what me worry lack of investment before the problem ?
